Almost perfect.
This case does 99% of the job it's designed for, which is to protect your phone. I'm delivering part time, and my job runs via an app. My phone is in my hand as I enter or leave my vehicle probably 40-60 times per day. I've dropped it twice already in the few days I've had the case. It does a great job protecting the phone. It add some bulk, but to be honest the S7 Edge is too thin to hold comfortably anyway. It's just big enough now to feel secure in my hand. I also like the idea of the holster, and it's nice that they included it. I'm never going to wear it, but it adds value for those who will use it.
The flaws:
1. The silly tabs that cover the charging and headphone ports. This phone is water and dust resistant, it doesn't need the port covers. They are always in the way. I sliced them off.
2. With an S7/S7 Edge, you will be using fast charging, or fast wireless charging. This phone gets *HOT* when charging, and the case traps all that heat. My phone shut down due to overheating while I was navigating to a customer and it was on my fast wireless charger. I drilled some vent holes in the back and that has helped a lot.
